Turning Heads

 Friday I went to Tuesday Morning to look for a couple of buckets.  I did find the buckets in a beautiful sage color with rusty spots so I was happy.

BUT as I turned to the checkout my eyes beheld HEADS!

I love heads.

There were three medium-sized ones, and I chose one of them with a slight downcast look.

Closer to the front of the store there was a white painted terra cotta torso.

SCREAM!






Into the cart this babe went.

So I went for buckets and got buckets.

Yes, I did come home with two heads.

Chucks wanted to know where in this house would they sit?

Why, in the dining room, Dear.











 Chucks not-so-gently reminded me I had several painting projects in various stages of completion laying about the dining room.

BUT there was a tiny corner with nothing.

It needed something.

It needed heads!












After turning the heads this way and that way and adding other elements, I came to this pleasing arrangement.

I love them and walk by them as much as possible.

Chucks says they are extremely creepy.

Maybe I will decorate them for Halloween.

Maybe Chucks is creepy!

See y'all!

  7. Love the heads! You could really dress them up with bling or blood - your choice for Halloween. I know you'll probably saying, "Those people . . . " Ha! Your Tuesday Morning is unlike mine. I would have never thought to go there for buckets - rusty or not. The heads, maybe.

  10. Donna, thanks for the "heads up" ! BWAH-HAHAHAHAAHAHAH ! (sorry, but I had to say it.)

    I love heads, too, especially in the garden. I hope my Tuesday morning has them ! Will run by tomorrow and take a look-see.

  11. Donna ... I have several heads of beautiful ladies where I display vintage jewelry. I don't think they are creepy and hope other people don't either. Well, maybe one of them is a little creepy, and I must agree with Chucks that the one with the down-cast eyes is just a little creepy. The tall one is neat and you will have fun decorating with them. They do look really nice the way you have them displayed with the old books.
    Take care of that finger and the shoulders.
    Blessings,

  12. Although you somehow have managed to pull it off and make it look totally normal to have two heads sitting in your dining room, I have to agree with Chucks, at least on the little one. There's something just a little tiny bit strange about it.

  13. Yes, two heads are better than one! I LOVE Them, and would have walked away with them in my cart, too! YAY for you! I want one of the garden ones that has a planter in the top...so it looks like wild hair!
